The solution is to tolerate both kinds of threads if their subject matter is thoughtful, informed and well-constructed. Smite the ignorant posters with righteous fury.

The iron fist of the DHS, while initially concerning due to the lack of clearly explained rules, is the best way to run a techniques forum that I have seen. Once the rules were more clearly laid out and the moderators showed themselves to be harsh but fair, I (and I believe many other grapplers) began to feel very good about the forum.

So far the armory has been quite good. Hopefully it will continue to be so.

I will defer to my associate's definition, as the one we will follow in the armory.
